Rooster - new design

A new design featuring a colorful and patterned rooster. I've been having a lot of fun playing with patterns and shapes in Illustrator lately.

Why a rooster? Well, for a while now I've been very entertained by Karen's awesome backyard chicken coop on The Art of Doing Stuff. While reading one of her chicken posts, I thought it could be fun to do some chicken inspired art. I know she doesn't have a rooster, but I've always thought their feathers are so much fun. Hence this guy! I think I might go back at some point and make some chickens to go along with the rooster - how cute could a couch look with a bunch of rooster and chicken pillows?

About Me

Welcome to my sketch blog! Here you can find sketches, paintings, various artistic output, and things I find inspiring. I'm a full-time high school art teacher as well as a freelance artist. I don't have a set posting schedule - posting tends to be more sporadic when school is in session, more frequent when it's not.

There's a pretty good mix of things posted here, from my own personal art, projects for my students, random DIY crafts, and more, so enjoy! Thanks for stopping by!
